There is nothing interesting about After Earth or Avatar TLA, genuinely two of the worst blockbusters ever

I'd add Hitchcock as well.

Reply to Edge of Tomorrow Advertising by Maiyku
It was based on a book called "All you need is kill"
Then Edge of tomorrow was decided for theatres (generic, unappealing, wow tht looks awful vibes)
Then home release they went with the other title they almost went with as Live. Die. Repeat. Which still sucks honestly.
All you need is kill is imo the best title and not generic. It's funny what a title can do.

Well i think your reply is lame and sucks. We're entitled to our own opinions. The quality of the movie experience at the theaters suck. I'm most likely going to watch these movies, but to truly enjoy them without any problems is streaming them in my home.

As long as they're talented and put in good performances, I don't really care where they come from. Lady Gaga is really good. Harry Styles is okay, he can always get better.
David Bowie was great as Nikola Tesla in the Prestige and it's no surprise he was Denis Villeneuve's first choice to play Niander Wallace in Blade Runner.
Also studios and producers want to make money and if they think a singer is going to sell more tickets than that's what they'll go with.

I think some of the best horror films ever made were directed by not necessarily “horror directors”:
The Exorcist
The Shining
An American Werewolf In London
Alien
…to name a few.

I love the concept of Wes Craven's New Nightmare (the Nightmare on Elm Street actors playing themselves being haunted by an on-set poltergeist), but the execution was absolutely NOT there.

Hannibal rising is also very good and explains a few things.

Kubrick? That's just cheating. Dude didn't even know that you could have a genre.

It’s definitely worth a watch. Probably top five sci-fi action movie of the decade.

Ah yes Edge of Tomorrow. Or as some people know it, Live. Die. Repeat.
They couldn't even settle on the final name for their movie, let alone market it properly. The rumored sequel was gonna be called, no bullshit, Live. Die. Repeat. Repeat.

Are you American? I think there are similar jokes in other countries
Like “do you live in the uk?” “No, I’m Welsh”.
It’s about how people sometimes identify with their state/city//region more than with their country
Bavaria in Germany Basque in Spain Etc

I saw this on vacation because it was literally the only movie playing in the tiny town we were in - I definitely wouldn't have seen it otherwise because to my recollection it just looked like a generic Tom Cruise action vehicle. It was so. much. fun. Definitely due for a rewatch.

Thats the Jason Statham one where it shows ‘the event’ in 4 different perspectives right? I remember liking that one too

I understand what you're saying and I agree. I guess this one just didn't bother me as much as I expected. It's all preference anyway.
Good luck finding the Telugu version, and enjoy it when you find it, the movie is a lot of fun!

Interestingly, I think the reason the speeches are like that is because they have such limited time. I watched some of the SAG Award acceptance speeches, and they didn't cut off any of them as they didn't have to worry about commercials. The speeches in turn were more heartfelt than the rushed name lists you're talking about, because they had time to both acknowledge the people they wanted to and say what they actually wanted to say.

I've seen 1, 2 & 3 and they're all essentially the same movie.
Reviews are meaningless, we know what we're getting
